I'm thinking of perhaps buying a battery-operated light to complement the dynamo light.
Swap your front light for one with a "stand light." I have a b&m lumotec eyc light. It is bright enough for urban riding and mine stays on around 5 minutes after you stop pedaling. The my rear light lasts around 10 minutes.
